<p>Outlook: Eureka heads into the game coming off a close loss to North Park, 
  23-21. Defensive End Keith Brown was named Illini-Badger Defensive Player of 
  the Week after his efforts in the game. Look for him to try to duplicate his 
  performance in this match-up. He and the Red Devils defense will have to try 
  to hold strong against an explosive Muskie rushing attack and get pressure on 
  Lakeland quarterback Brent Luebke to keep him from repeating a 300-yard passing 
  effort last week against a very stingy Oshkosh defense. The Red Devil offense 
  may have an equally challenging task of moving the ball effectively against 
  a Lakeland team that held its line against a powerful Oshkosh numerous times. 
  They may have trouble passing the ball as they have all season so far. They've 
  given up a team total of eight interceptions, and the Muskies secondary will 
  look to make them give up more.</p>
<p>Lakeland returns to Taylor Field this week after suffering a heartbreaking 
  four-overtime, three-point loss to Wisconsin-Oshkosh. Shaun Behrend, IBFC's 
  Offensive Player of the Week after receiving 12 passes for 158 yards and 3 TDs 
  last week, and the Muskie offense will again show its versatility by mixing 
  run and pass plays as they have all season. The Muskies will face a Eureka defense 
  that has allowed 88 points so far this season including a 37-0 drubbing. Last 
  year, the Muskies beat the Red Devils 35-0 in Eureka. Expect a similar result 
  at the end of this one caused by the Muskie defense being too stingy for the 
  inconsistent Red Devils.</p>
<p>Coaches: Jim Zebrowski is 2-1 with Lakeland in his first year as head coach. 
  Darrell Crouch is in his fourth year as head coach for Eureka.</p>
<p>Last Year: The Muskies blanked the Red Devils, 35-0, in Eureka.</p>
